Japanese car site Car@Nifty has posted up a Lexus CT 200h F-Sport photo gallery, and it looks like the JDM CT F-Sport will be equipped with paddle shifters:

From my understanding, the paddle-shifters will only be offered in Japan, which would explain why there was no mention of the option when the CT F-Sport debuted last week at the Australian auto show. Of course, the CT 200h is equipped with a CVT and all gear changes would be simulated, so it’s hard to say just how useful the paddle-shifters would really be.
